The aim of a Backgammon game is to shift your checkers around the Backgammon board and get those pieces off the board faster than your challenger who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a round in Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. How far you will be able to move your checkers is left to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and how you shift your pieces are determined by your overall gambling tactics. Players use a few tactics in the different parts of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The goal of the Running Game plan is to entice all your pieces into your inner board and get them off as fast as you could. This tactic concentrates on the pace of shifting your checkers with little or no efforts to hit or block your opponent’s checkers. The ideal scenario to employ this plan is when you believe you might be able to move your own chips faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the game board; 2) all your checkers have past your competitor’s checkers; or 3) your opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The main goal of the blocking strategy, by its name, is to block the opponent’s chips, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your checkers quickly. After you have created the barrier for your opponent’s movement with a few checkers, you can move your other chips rapidly from the board. The player really should also have a good plan when to back off and move the checkers that you employed for the blockade. The game gets interesting when the opposition uses the same blocking strategy.
